Diana Arroyo reassigned MESOS-2382:
-----------------------------------
Assignee: Diana Arroyo
> replace unsafe "find | xargs" with "find -exec"
> -----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MESOS-2382
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-2382
> Project: Mesos
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: build
> Affects Versions: 0.20.1
> Reporter: Lukas Loesche
> Assignee: Diana Arroyo
> Labels: easyfix, patch
>
> The problem exists in
> 1194:src/Makefile.am
> 47:src/tests/balloon_framework_test.sh
> The current "find | xargs rm -rf" in the Makefile could potentially destroy
> data if mesos source was in a folder with a space in the name. E.g. if you
> for some reason checkout mesos to "/ mesos" the command in src/Makefile.am
> would turn into a rm -rf /
> "find | xargs" should be NUL delimited with "find -print0 | xargs -0" for
> safer execution or can just be replaced with the find build-in option "find
> -exec '{}' \+" which behaves similar to xargs.
> There was a second occurrence of this in a test script, though in that case
> it would only rmdir empty folders, so is less critical.
> I submitted a PR here: https://github.com/apache/mesos/pull/36
